What makes it turn back at the apex? I know its all balance, but its like we hit he roof of space then head back down the curve. Mind blowing... :bonghit: [/quote] The barycenter does. Sometimes the center of the solar systems gravity is outside of the sun. And the sun orbits around it. [/quote] Other points of angular motion to consider: The rolling/eddy/vortexijah(look that up) of our little off shoot from the Orion arm of the Milky Way.....coupled with the possibility that the Sol system was originally from the Sag dwarf galaxy that ol Milky is assimilating. Our larger wobble could come from gradual stabilization within the larger disk... Also, most star systems are 2 or more orbiting members, the chances of the sun having one [b]or more than one[/b] long orbit companions are high. [/quote] 85% [/quote]
Original Message
Although I think the title of the video is a little misleading (as we do orbit around our sun), I find this video absolutely fascinating. IMO, this is a much better representation of the movement of our solar system in comparison to the standard 2D models.
I've seen this vid floating around in some other very interesting threads, and thought it deserved its own.
